Very interesting Jon. If you import the .gifs from the PCMag article into XDP, you can see how they're constructed. This could be useful.

If XDP could take a sequence of images and extract just the pixels that are different from one to the next to create a new frame for each, it could easily create animated gifs like these. Doubt it will make into the next version due out soon, but I would still welcome it in a future upgrade...
